half a century?!

My beautiful sister, Maxine, was 50 yesterday. I cannot believe where the years have gone. Steph, our baby sister is fast heading towards this milestone, so this means I’m well and truly over the hill!

Our Nanna would have been 97 today too! Many a family 3 day birthday event was held between the 3 of us!

Max has decided to holiday in the sun with a girlfriend. She had an early party with her daughter and grandchildren, last week. Lily May, aged 5 going on 40, kindly blew the candles out on the cake because Maxine was very obviously ‘too old Gwanny’. Baby Max, aged almost one, ‘helped’ by eating the chocolates when the adults weren’t watching.

We raised a glass or three to Maxine and thanked god we are all here to celebrate this milestone event. Age rushes upon us but its so much better than the alternative!

Happy 50th Maxine! Reach for the stars! xxxxx
